"Signs of Life"
Birds scouting early opportunities
silhouetted in the winter morning light.
Diptych
"Inseparable"
Two trees, so different, yet  growing so close
together as to almost be one. Bamberger Ranch
"Texas Sage Sky"
The lavender heaven seemed to be a
reflection of the Texas sage below.
"Lost At Sea"
Walking , bundled up against the cool
breezes and the lingering dew on the sand.
"Last of Autumn"
Paintings are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
Homestead, Virginia
"Tempestuous"
As the storm  relentlessly advanced,
the sky roiled with no hint of red or orange.
Where was the sun?
"Andaze"
The land and tree line as we approached the mountains
made the Andes seem more stunning and more mysterious.
"Blithe"
Crisp October air,  a clear stream
and the snow-caps hovering.
What could be more carefree?
Redstone Colorado
"Go With The Flow"
In the fading light, it seemed that the stream might be
flowing directly from the snowy mountain miles away.
"Lonely Tide"
How could such a soothing tide
be left alone on a warm afternoon?
"Quickly Quenching"
With so much mist in the air, the diffused sunlight
gave the Hill Country an ethereal quality
that is
seldom seen. The summer storm kept moving along,
leaving renewal in its wake.
"Boundless"
Amid the vast expanse that is the Midwest
just about anything seems possible.
"Interlude"
The Adirondacks  instill serenity and curiosity.  
What beauty lies just around the bend?
